RANDALL AS AN oBsTRucTIoNIsT
Memphis Avalanche.

uVRPhAS N NoAohShSs
Posing as the savior of the Demo-
cratic party seems to be favorite at
titude of Mr.. Samuel j. Randall. AS
a matter of fact, it Is rather thin
pretext that Mr.. Randall has for pos
ing as a member of the Democratic
party at all. He now talks of the
danger of any radical interference
with the tariff, which he says would
be "like taking hold of the hot end
of q poker" AS an illustration that is
very good; as an argument 1t
amounts to nothing. Mr.. Randall
gives no good reason for his assertion
that 1t would be dangerous for the
Democratic party torevise and amend
the tariff. He realizes that 1t is inn
possible to do 80. The country has O
right to expect that during the next
session of Congress the Democrats
will make a vigorous, determined,
intelligent aud united effort in the
direction Of tariff reform. Except fol-
Randall and his Republican allies
something would already have been
done. There is a medium between
the stand taken by Mr.. Carlisle and
that occupied by Mr.. Randall-the
Chicago platform--upon which every
Democrat can stand without doing
violence to his conscience or injur.
Ing his constituency.

THN preacher 1T the methodist
church had to eait ttdef twice last
Sunday night. There WINS some
talk of indictments. People who
cannot behave should stay away. *
Pi SSH Citizen.
Perhaps the boys had been accus-
toned to hearing exhortations from
so.ne Of the Salvation Army style OF
orators and therefore they thought
the preacher was too slow when he
had nothing more sensational to
quote from than the Sermon on the
Mount, or one Of Paul's common
sense letters 70 the Hebrews or the
Colioslans.

A Kentucky newspaper writer
throws in this solid contribution to
the current facts which are being
brought to light by the prohibition
movement:
"The Democratic tide which has
been sweeping the State Kentucky
for the past quarter OF a century has .
gathered q great deal Of driftwOod
that was floating around loose on the
political waves that Will now leave
1t. 1t never was Democratic timber,
and was never at home on the Dem
Ocratic tide. There Is much of Ii that.
will never be Mt home in any party
in fact, II Is floating rubbish and drifts
with all new currents. We want to
warn Democrats, especially young
Democrats, to beware OF the teachings
of political weather-cocks. When
you find man who has been voting
with the Democrats, and claiming to
be Democrat, going or into side
or prohibition party, inquire into his
antecedeHts, and you, wilt find that
he Is some Of the drifswood that has
been floating with the tide, and per-
haps rotton ct that. Don't be de- )
ceived by them but follow where the
Democratic flag flies.
There is nothing strange or peculiar
in Kentucky newspaper telling the
truth, but 1t Is something sntirelyy
new and out Of his line to hear Col.
Colyar in his converted" and rigid
ly pious American of the 22nd COM
ment on the foregoing In these
words:
This is a very clear line Of thought,
The Democratic party Is broad
enough to supply every reasonable
demand for the peoples wants, anJf
no outside political organization will
ever so fully represent the underly-
ing principles of popular government.
In the meantime it may be noticed
that the labor movement which has
hitherto confined its line of travel&
| East and West, has. never dipped so
deeply and 50 far South before.
Yet in open contradiction to the
above "clear line of thoughr' Col.
Colyar is doing everything in his
power to lead Democrats out OF The
party on every imaginable side Is
sue so that theienemylmay and the
Democracy In Tennessee divided in
1883 and they hope by this means to
gain an easy victory-counting the
electoral vote Of the State for Sher-
man, Or for blaine. y

THERE was a distinguished alb

city on the 50th anniversary of the
reign of the power that has made
itself execrable for four times fifty
years by its oppression Of Ireland,
But Irish hearts still beat high with
hope for the final triumph of justice,
confident in the faith that
